Transcript

If your mind feels too busy to sleep tonight, You're not alone. You don't need to stop your thoughts. You don't need to clear anything. This is just a place to slow down. Softly. There's nothing else to do. Nowhere to be. For the next few minutes, Your only job is to let the day drift away. Let your eyes be closed, If they aren't already. Let your breath move gently, In and out. Just like this. Feel your body, Wherever it's resting. Maybe heavy against the mattress. Or still adjusting. That's okay. Notice your jaw and let it loosen. Your shoulders. Let them drop. Just slightly. Notice your hands. Where they are. How still they are becoming. Now you're breathing. No need to slow it. Just be with it. Like a gentle rhythm, You don't have to manage. If your thoughts come back, And they will, Just give them space and return to this next breath. Each time you come back, You sink a little deeper. Imagine your whole body slowly softening like a heavy blanket. As if gravity is gently pulling the day away from you. Lower. Slower. You don't have to try to sleep. You just get to be still. Let the voice drift and let yourself follow. You're doing nothing wrong. Even thinking too much is okay. This is a soft landing. A slow dimming.

Very calming voice and accent. I love how there's no pressure to stop racing thoughts, which funnily enough makes the thoughts drift away.
